Subject: Bug: Modifying org-latex-pdf-process doesn't modify the async export behaviour

Hi,

I've encountered an issue trying to write a function to toggle between 
two org-latex-pdf-process states (short & long). The function works as 
intended when using synchronous export (the PDF is created with the 
appropriate number of steps), but it doesn't work with asynchronous 
export (org-latex-pdf-process isn't grabbed past the first run).

Here's my function:
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
(defvar zaeph/org-latex-pdf-process-mode)
(defun zaeph/toggle-org-latex-pdf-process ()
   "Toggle the number of steps in the xelatex PDF process."
   (interactive)
   (if (or (not (bound-and-true-p zaeph/org-latex-pdf-process-mode))
	  (string= zaeph/org-latex-pdf-process-mode "short"))
       (progn (setq org-latex-pdf-process '("xelatex -shell-escape\
                                                     -interaction 
nonstopmode\
                                                     -output-directory 
%o %f"
					   "biber %b"
					   "xelatex -shell-escape\
                                                     -interaction 
nonstopmode\
                                                     -output-directory 
%o %f"
					   "xelatex -shell-escape\
                                                     -interaction 
nonstopmode\
                                                     -output-directory 
%o %f")
		   zaeph/org-latex-pdf-process-mode 'long)
	     (message "XeLaTeX process mode: Long"))
     (progn (setq org-latex-pdf-process '("xelatex -shell-escape\
                                                   -interaction nonstopmode\
                                                   -output-directory %o %f")
		 zaeph/org-latex-pdf-process-mode 'short)
	   (message "XeLaTeX process mode: Short"))))
(zaeph/toggle-org-latex-pdf-process)
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried appending (org-reload) to my function, but it didn't work.
I've also tried modifying org-latex-pdf-process on a fresh emacs session 
prior to any async export, and I can confirm that it grabs the latest 
state of org-latex-pdf-process. I'd surmise that async export has a 
process running in the background, but I don't know how to force it to 
reload.

Would you have any idea?

Thanks.

Best,
